Internal Corruption
I am not a robot.
I am the real me.
Twilight sets in, the horizon grows dim.
A flick of my switch and my tired eyes peer deeply into thick obsidian air.
The spark to my brain sends infinite thoughts surging.
My wiring is bad.
I have no controls.
My short-circuit brain twists thoughts into shreds until all the good ones are dead.
Why did I say that?
How did you take that?
What could it mean?
Where could you be?
I can't let it go.
Each scene is replayed until my mind gets its way...
Distorted
Anxious
Negative
Angry
Restless
Lonely
My programming is off.
It was a cyber attack.
Internal corruption once again complete.
Switch set to off.
Eyes close again as daybreak appears.
Time to reboot.
